Since the whole ward was invited, including members of the Relief Society, I decided that the ward activity qualifies as "bloggable". It was held at the Adam's ranch on a beautiful Saturday evening.
There were around 100 people in attendance.
The activity was in honor of our Veterans, from all branches of the Military.
Grillin' up some delicious hamburgers and hot dogs.
The color guard, comprised of some of the Veterans from our ward.
Raising the colors.
A quartet singing the National Anthem. Apparently while they were singing a bald eagle swooped down just behind the flag. What an inspiring moment, I only wish I had caught it on camera!
The Pledge of Allegiance. I was multi-tasking.
Brother Miller was throwing children into the lake. And when you throw kids into the lake, you're bound to get pushed in yourself. This is him chasing Brother Kluttz after justice was served. It was pretty hilarious.
Brother Kluttz didn't hide for long.
Brother Kluttz won.
And of course Brother Miller didn't learn his lesson and ended up in the lake several more times. It was fun for everyone. :)
Retiring the colors. No Veterans this time (guess they all went home).
Getting some shooting in before dusk.
This year's Veterans barbecue was another success! Of course, you know it's always going to be a good time at the Adam's ranch. Thank you to all who helped make this activity a blast!
